More gods, no original sin?
They even have an elephant?

Well, God didn’t choose to expunge sin from the world by getting a virgin preggers, being born as your own son, then having yourself tortured to death, to the delight of onlookers.
In Hinduism, Brahma is logical.
I LOVE fucking with the Catholics. Gonna hammer them for $$$$$$$$$$ like the right fist of an angry God. Can’t go into details but…so fucking sweet…
Let the hammer fall. As Yoda would say: “Every fucking nickel I will get!”
You are one messed up dude man. Yoda would have said “nickel get will I”.
I do not share your attitude

Thank you for the correction.
I’m doing this as a payback btw. No, no pedo stuff when I was 8 or anything of that sort. They lied about some $$$$$, where it was going, and I caught them FINALLY.
They better pray cause my lawyer makes a Great White look like a lamb.

To say the absolute very least.

I’m sure the self loathing Jewess would be proud.
P.S. Yoda wouldn’t say that.

Of course not, I doubt you’ve seen one reliable statistic on the situation and continually make unsubstantiated claims against the Church. Not to mention you aren’t even Catholic. So, the opportunity never would have presented itself.

It’s cool. Come at us, bro.
The American legal system is formed after the oldest legal system…Canon Court…you know the one that is part of the Catholic Church. 
You’re in our play ground.

I don’t think anyone here believes any of this to be true, but in any event…
…anyone who says this about their lawyer doesn’t have the kind of lawyer who actually does this.
Phoney baloney, times two.
Only on the interwebz is HH’s lawyer > any lawyer that the Vatican can pay for
Its like saying your lawyer is gonna chew up Monsanto’s
Outlawyer the Vatican? Delusional.

I don’t think I see the United States anywhere explicitly referenced in the bible, but I am simply unable to go into it that at the moment.

Dwarfs them all? That’s such a massive statement that I cannot see how you would back it up, but I will read it if you’re willing to try.
I don’t have a ton of time at the moment, but this is just inventions. Which are all but happy symptoms of our liberty made possible by the self government we had at our founding and up until the 1960’s. Please name for me the civilization who’s impact on the way the world lives surpasses ours. As you type… on a computer… over the internet… using electricity… before getting in a car… or airplane… made on an assembly line… or watching news about Mars… on a TV… or talking on a telephone. For instance.

Hmm, this is already going pear shaped hehe…as in you want to view the invention cycle as starting in the US in a vacuum from what went before? And I’m pretty sure the first automobile was a either French or German, depending on who you speak to. Pretty sure the same goes for TV, was in Europe first. But it’s a moot point. When you have more time give me something a bit better than that.
I’ll throw my 02c in on the Roman Empire as having more impact and longer lasting shadow than the US at this point. Just to start the ball rolling…
I almost included a preemptive strike against just such a line of thought as obviously I know that many strides are made building on the groundwork laid by others, but nevermind. Not the point anyway. The relative point we occupy on the scale is irrelevant to my line of discussion. Greatness will do fine.
